Thank you all for this community, which has been such a helpful and supportive resource for me & my kitties this year <3
Does anyone know how long after administering antibiotics it is normal for diarrhea to continue?
Benson developed a URI and, since we adopted him on March 3 got:
+ a Cerenia (antibiotic) injection on March 13
+ a course of antibiotic eye drops from March 20 - March 26
+ Famciclovir (antiviral) from March 20 - March 27
+ A tablet antibiotic (cannot remember name but will try to find it) from March 20 - March 26
+ another Cerenia (antibiotic) injection April 4
+ Sucralfate for vomiting (reaction to Fancy Feast) April 4 - April 6
+ Viralys (lysine) from April 9 - April 17
+ antibiotic eye drops again from April 9 to yesterday (on and off, I kept stopping because of how bad his diarrhea is)
Is it normal for him to still have diarrhea? He hasn't received an antibiotic (other than the eye drops, which I don't know if could cause GI symptoms) since April 4. When should I begin looking at other causes?
I should note that I have given him two days of Fortiflora and today bought probiotic capsules to mix into his food.
